Provo • As the final seconds wound down on the clock, before the final whistle was blown, BYU and Liberty started shaking hands. The Cougars had regained possession with 28 seconds left, securing their 31-24 win over the visiting Flames, Saturday at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
But as the teams finished up the post-game tradition, BYU coach Kalani Sitake noticed Liberty was getting ready to take a knee on the field. Sitake felt like it would be good for the Cougars to share that moment, so Liberty coach Hugh Freeze invited the home team to join them.
